"In a place of suspicion, it is necessary to be cautious." Cao Miao said lightly, paused, and said, "I have a deep understanding of this. ”

Tian Fu subconsciously glanced at Cao Miao. Cao Miao squinted slightly, looking at the willow trees on both sides of the river, looking a little lonely. Tian Fu thought for a while and couldn't help but sigh.

Although Cao Miao's father and son are clansmen, they are actually the same as their father and son, they are all suspicious, and they have to be cautious in their words and deeds to avoid causing disasters.

Unconsciously, Tian Fu was much more affectionate and took the initiative to introduce the situation in Runan.

Not long after Tian Yu arrived in Runan, his main focus was still on rearmament and stabilizing the situation, and he had no time to care about other matters, and his knowledge was limited. Cao Miao didn't ask specifically, he listened to what Tian Fu said.

Overall, the situation in Runan – and indeed in Yuzhou as a whole – is not optimistic. Cao Xiu's fiasco not only led to a large number of casualties, but also the consumption of materials was staggering, and it was almost impossible to regain strength in a short period of time.

"Compared to Yiyang, Runan is pretty good." Tian Fu consciously said too much and forcibly brought the topic back. "After the Huaishui, it is the realm of Outuo, except for the scouts on both sides and the meticulous work, there are almost no people to see, and there is no place to even spend the night. Before the townsman sets off, he should be well prepared. ”

Cao Miao nodded and expressed her gratitude.

Ou De is the buffer zone. Since the era of Cao Cao, several times to attack Wu have failed to make contributions, most of the Jiujiang and Lujiang rivers along the river fell into the hands of Eastern Wu, and the Wei army had to take the initiative to retreat to the Huaishui line, with Hefei as the front line. The Wei army could not cross the river, the Wu army could not capture Hefei, and the two sides faced off for a long time in this area, and there was a buffer zone between the Jianghuai and Huai, which was sparsely populated.

For this reason, Jia Kui went to the imperial court and built a straight road, which went south from Yiyang, passed through the Dabie Mountains, and reached Wuchang. The suggestion was very good, and the road was repaired, but Jia Kui didn't have a chance to use it. With the current situation of the Wei State, it is necessary to prevent the Wu army from using this straight road to raid Runan.

It was this straight road that Cao Miao was going to take.

Hundreds of miles of mountain roads, deserted, may be ambushed by the other party at any time, the danger can be imagined.

"Brother Tian, are you familiar with the deployment of the Wu army?" Cao Miao asked, "Who is in charge of military intelligence spying?" ”

"Sun Quan is still in Wuchang, and the soldiers stationed in Wuchang are the troublesome soldiers in the forbidden army. The Xie Fu soldiers were divided into two parts, left and right, which were commanded by Hu Zong and Xu Shen respectively. It is said that Hu Zong is a native of Runan, and it is more likely that he will be in charge. However, these are speculations, and there is no definite evidence. I've heard someone talk about a piece of news, and I don't know if it's true or not, so the townsman might as well listen to it. ”

"Oh, what's the news?"

"Do you know Mrs. Sun? is the Mrs. Sun who once married Liu Xuande. ”

Cao Miao nodded again and again. "Yes, yes."

"She is also in Wuchang, her whereabouts are secret, and no one knows what she is doing in Wuchang. Some scouts have seen several female spies on the battlefield, who are skilled, well-equipped, and outstanding, especially with a superior attitude, very much like the maidservants around her. ”

Cao Miao pondered for a moment. "Has anyone seen these female spies with their own eyes? I'd like to know a little bit more. ”

Tian Fu scratched his head, a little embarrassed, squeaked for a long time, and said that he was not familiar with the situation, and he had to go to the army to inquire. Cao Miao didn't ask much, Tian's father and son had just arrived, and it was difficult to say whether the soldiers under Jia Kui's command listened to their orders or not, and it was not so easy to find someone.

Because of the preparation of a new play in his previous life, he paid great attention to the legendary bow-waisted Ji. In that script, Mrs. Sun was the person in charge of Sun Wu's secret front. This is, of course, fiction and is not supported by any historical data, but the possibility exists.

Mrs. Sun played an important role in the Sun-Liu Alliance. Sun Quan and Liu Bei turned their faces, and there was no record of Mrs. Sun after she returned to Jiangdong. Just because she doesn't know it doesn't mean she doesn't exist. She is not an ordinary woman, she can teach her husband and children with peace of mind, on the contrary, she has a good martial arts and is Sun Quan's own sister. Loyal and not a threat to Sun Quan, it is only appropriate to engage in confidential affairs.

This category of people is usually not recorded in history, but its importance is self-evident. When he knew that Cao Rong intended to let him go to Jiangdong, he began to collect relevant information and formulate a plan. It includes information related to Mrs. Sun, but the harvest is limited.

Unexpectedly, he got a clue when chatting with Tian Fu, so he naturally refused to let it go, thinking about it with Tian Fu, and asked for as much news as possible. Bunny Fly

"Have you seen him?" Seeing that Tian Fu had been looking at Ah Hu, Cao Miao smiled.

Tian Fu blinked. "I haven't seen it." After thinking about it, he said, "I've heard Miaoqin talk about it." ”

"What did Miaoqin say?" Cao Miao looked at Tian Fu with a smile. Tian Fu was lying, from the moment he got on the boat, he looked at Ah Hu intentionally or unintentionally, but Ah Hu ignored him. Now that I mentioned poetry and color shadows, there must be an article in it.

Shi Caiying rushed to Runan on his orders to prepare, it was a completely private task, why did he reveal his identity to Tian Yu's father and son? This doesn't make sense. Considering that Tian Yu has been fighting with the Xianbei people in Northern Xinjiang all the year round, and Ah Hu is suspected of having Xianbei blood, Cao Miao can't help but consider that Shi Caiying and Tian Yu have known each other for a long time, and it is related to Ah Hu's life experience.

"Miaoqin said that Ah Hu is a master." Tian Fu dodged Cao Miao's eyes, and his smile was not natural. "I'm so martial arts, I want to have a fight with him."

"Did Miaoqin say that I taught him martial arts?" Cao Miao said with a smile.

Tian Fu was stunned for a moment. "I haven't heard of that."

"If you're interested, I can talk to you." Cao Miao rolled up her sleeves and moved her body.

Tian Fu turned to look at Cao Miao with a panicked expression. "No, no, no, how dare I do it with the townsman. Besides, this ship...... It's also inconvenient. ”

"It doesn't matter." Cao Miao stretched out her hand through the window and gently put it on Tian Fu's left shoulder. "If you can break free of my hand, count me as losing. I will order Ah Hu to fight with you, and even give him to you. ”

Tian Fu's eyes shrank, his expression became solemn, and he stared at Cao Miao for a while. "Is this true?"

"Of course." Cao Miao smiled brightly. "If Brother Tian loses, you have to do me a favor."

"What's the busy?"

"I find someone who has seen the female spy of Wu Guo, and I want to ask him some questions."

Tian Fu crooked his mouth and smiled. "If the township prince wins, why don't I send a female spy of Wu Guo directly to the township father, and the township prince asks slowly, how about it?"

Cao Miao's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled silently. "Brother Tian wants to make a deal with me, why don't you say it bluntly, it's not refreshing enough to go around such a big circle."

Tian Fu smiled and said nothing.

Cao Miao's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said: "If you fall into the water, count me as winning, or count you as winning?" ”

"Naturally, the township wins." Tian Fu said proudly. Although he is not good at boating, and the space on the ship is not large, Cao Miao is in the cabin, and his hand on his shoulder is close to the limit. As long as he took a step back, he could break free from Cao Miao's hand, and he didn't need to use force, so naturally it was impossible for him to fall into the water because of too much force.

"A gentleman's word?"

"It's hard to chase a horse." Tian Fu said proudly.

Before the words fell, Cao Miao's arm shrank slightly, and then stretched out.

"Phew!" As if he had been hit by a war horse, Tian Fu took two steps back, stepped on the air with one foot, waved his arms in vain a few times, and fell into the water in response.
